When he was 16, Molai began to notice something3 happening around his home. A flood had hit the area earlier that year and the4 it caused had driven away a number of birds.5, the number of snakes had declined as well.

He turned to the9 department for help but was told that nothing would grow there. However, Molai went looking on his own and10a nearby island where he began to plant trees.

Molai15 to plant trees for the next 37 years. His efforts have resulted in 1,360 acres of naturally-grown land that has become home to many plants and animals.

A recent study published in the scientific journal Nature Astronomy concluded "that current practices have a 10 percent chance of one or more deaths over a decade". In other words, according to researchers from the University of Victoria and the University of British Columbia, there's roughly a one-in-ten chance that the next decade will witness falling space junk kill someone.

The space junk orbiting the earth is an unfortunate by-product of our desire to explore and document space. According to 2021 figures from NASA and the Department of Defense's Space Surveillance Data, the agencies were actively tracking more than 27,000 pieces of space junk, most of which are larger than a softball and that casually orbit the planet. While the floating space junk is certainly a problem, not all the objects that went up must come down, and, in fact, a number of pieces simply burn up in the atmosphere. But sometimes those objects, particularly large ones like used rocket attachments, give in to gravity and fall back down to Earth to be dealt with once again by their human makers. Typically, people don't die or even get injured by this phenomenon — many of the falling pieces crash into the ocean.

They also have to deal with the unsettling feeling of knowing that large rocket pieces can just fall from the sky and that it might affect people in certain parts of the world more than others.

This poses an obvious safety risk to people on the ground. "When some large parts of space junk return to Earth, the parts of their mass survive the heat of atmosphere. Many of the surviving pieces are potentially dangerous, giving serious risks on land, at sea, and to people in airplanes," the study explains.

For a wedding ， the bride will have "registered ( 登 记 )" at one or two local department stores，indicating the items she prefers．You can buy the couple a gift that isn't listed , but most people buy something listed on the registry (记录簿). If you buy an item listed on the registry, be sure to tell the store that you are doing this, so that the couple doesn't receive duplicate (重复的) gifts．For a baby shower，bring a gift appropriate for a new born baby．

If you wish to give a gift when you leave to return to your country, the best gift     is something unique to your country. It does not need to be especially valuable or rare. Possibilities include a book about your country, an inexpensive piece of handicraft( 手工艺品)or art, or something else that reflects your culture. If the children collect coins and stamps, they would be very pleased with a set of your country's coins or a selection of stamps from your country.

If you owe a debt of deep gratitude to an American host family, a common way of repaying it is to take the family to a form of entertainment, such as a baseball, basketball, or a good restaurant.

Gift giving is not as important in America as it is in other countries, so there is nothing wrong with not giving a gift. If you need help, talk to a salesperson at a department store. Tell them about the person who will be receiving the gift and the reason for the gift, and they will help you find something appropriate.

I counted his cash and replied, "You know that you don't have enough money to buy the doll, my dear." The little boy was still holding the doll in his hand. Finally, I walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to. "It's the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much. I want to gift her for her birthday. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there." His eyes were so sad while saying this.

"My sister has been dead. Daddy says that Mommy is going to pass away very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister." My heart nearly stopped. The little boy looked up at me and said, "I let Daddy tell Mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall." Then he showed me a very nice photo of him, where he was laughing. He then told me, "I want Mommy to take my picture with her so my sister won't forget me. I love my mommy and I wish she doesn't have to leave me, but Daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister."

Then he looked again at the doll with sad eyes, very quietly. I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy, "Suppose we check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll?" He said, "OK. I hope I do have enough." I added some of my money to his, without him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money.

I finished my shopping in a totally different state from when I started. I couldn't get the little boy out of my mind. Then I remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a little girl. The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state.

Emma and Sophia were the kind of friends who seemed to share a single mind most of the time, always there for each other through thick and thin. One sunny day, they decided to take on a project that would benefit their community — creating an environmental-awareness video.

They were both passionate about the environment and believed that a well-made video could inspire their neighbors to take more eco-friendly actions. At first, the project seemed full of promise. They spent days brainstorming ideas, researching environmental issues relevant to their area, and looking for locations for filming. However, as they delved (钻研) deeper into the actual planning of the video, they encountered a major roadblock.

The disagreement started when it came to the style of the video. Emma, who had a gift for drama and storytelling, wanted to create a narratively driven video. She created a story about a family gradually changing their habits to become more environmentally conscious (有环保意识的). She believed that a relatable story would touch people's heartstrings and make them more likely to pay attention. Sophia, on the other hand, was more data-oriented (以数据为导向的). She thought that a documentary-style video, filled with hard facts and statistics about local pollution and waste, would be more effective in getting the message across. She argued that people needed to be shocked into action by the realities.

As the discussion heated up, their once-harmonious relationship became strained. Their voices rose, and the air between them grew tense. They both felt strongly about their ideas and were unwilling to budge (改变意图). Eventually, they parted ways, each frustrated and disappointed in the other.

For the next few days, Emma and Sophia went about their lives feeling a sense of emptiness. Emma found herself constantly thinking about the project and Sophia. She missed their long conversations and the excitement they had at the beginning. She started to question whether her idea was really the only way. Similarly, Sophia was also feeling down. She missed Emma's creativity and the way they used to bounce ideas off each other.
